TLS (Transport Layer Security)
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a protocol that protects data transmitted over the internet. It ensures that information, such as passwords or personal details, remains private and cannot be intercepted or tampered with by others. Think of TLS as a secure, encrypted conversation between your device and a website, preventing eavesdroppers from understanding what’s being shared. It’s commonly used in online banking, shopping, and messaging, providing trust and confidentiality so users can safely communicate and share sensitive information without fear of interception.
